Answer 1

\(\LARGE\color{midnightblue}{ \rm \frac{3}{5}x-5+x-4=-1 }\)

\(\LARGE\color{midnightblue}{ \rm \frac{3}{5}x+x-9=-1 }\)

\(\LARGE\color{midnightblue}{ \rm \frac{3}{5}x+x=8 }\)

\(\LARGE\color{midnightblue}{ \rm \frac{3x}{5}+x=8 }\)

\(\LARGE\color{midnightblue}{ \rm \frac{3x}{5}+\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{40}{5} }\)

\(\LARGE\color{midnightblue}{ \rm 8x=40}\)
